Black Boys On Mopeds

[D].  Spelled out in 3/4 time, it goes:
  [D]   [D]   [D]    [A]   [A]   [A]    [G]   [G]   [G]    [G]   [G]   [A]
  [D]

Ma[D]rgaret Thatcher[A] on TV     [G]

Sh[A]ocked [D]by the deaths that [A]took place in [G]Beijing

Se[A]ems stra[D]nge that she should[A] be offended  [G]

Th[A]e same [D]orders are gi[A]ven by her [G]

I've said this before now
You said I was childish and you'll say it now
Remember what I told you
They hated me, they will hate you

        (
  [G])
  [A]         [D]          [A]         [G]

England's not the mythical land of Madame George and roses

  [D]      It's t[A]he home of polic[G]e who kill black boys on mopeds

  [D]      And I [A]love my boy[G], and that's why I'm leaving

  [D]      I don't wan[A]t him to be aware tha[G]t there's any such thing as grieving
           (hold G for extra measure, then A on last beat before verse)

Young mother down at Smith Field, 5 a.m.
Looking for food for her kids
In her arms she holds three cold babies
And the first word that they learned was "Please"

These are dangerous days
To say what you feel is to dig your own grave
Remember what I told you
If you were of the world they would love you
